Workspaces vs Trips
For organizers and invited members
In plain terms
A workspace is the shared home for your group. A trip is one plan inside that home. Someone can belong to the workspace without being on every trip.
What each layer controls
Workspace membership controls who belongs to the shared workspace and who can open workspace settings or shared pages.
Trip membership controls who can see and participate in one specific trip.
- Joining the workspace does not automatically add someone to every trip.
- Being on a trip does not automatically make someone a workspace admin.
- Trip roles decide whether someone can edit, contribute, or only view that trip.
Two supported ways to bring someone in
Use a workspace invite first when someone needs broader access to the workspace or may join multiple trips later.
Use a direct trip invite when the immediate need is access to one specific trip. Accepting that invite also creates the workspace membership needed for that trip.
What to tell someone who cannot see the trip
Check whether they only joined the workspace, or whether they were also added to the trip.
If they accepted a trip invite, ask them to sign in with the same email address that received the invite.
Quick FAQ
- Can someone be in the workspace and still miss the trip?
- Yes. That usually means they were added to the workspace but not yet added to that trip.
- Which path should organizers use most often?
- Invite to the workspace first when someone should belong to the group long-term. Invite directly to the trip when the goal is one trip right now.
